Havana, Sep 14 (Prensa Latina) A call for efficiency and making the best of available resources for meeting national needs were the focus of a statement issued Monday by the Central Organization of Cuban Workers, CTC.
Cuba needs to advance economically, better organize its production, boost its reserves of productivity and increase productivity, and improve discipline and efficiency, and that is only possible through honest work and dedication, said the statement.
Today, more than ever, the will and determination to continue building socialism and advance in the development and upgrading of the Cuban economic model are alive and unshakeable, the statement said.
In line with that process, the 2011 economic plans include eliminating over 500,000 jobs in the state sectors, and increasing jobs in the non-state sector by the same number, the statement said. The success of the initiative will depend on the political support provided by union leaders and under the leadership of the Communist Party, and on the social consensus acheived on the economic and political relevance of this measure, the statement said.
Within the state sector, it will only be possible to continue filling jobs that are essential, for work that has historically faced labor shortages, such as agriculture, construction, teachers, police, industrial workers, and others, the text said.
Changes to employment policy will be implemented gradually and progressively, will begin immediately, and due to their magnitude and scope, will affect all sectors, the statement said.
The text concluded by saying that the unity between Cuban workers and the people has been key to creating the gigantic achievements of the Revolution, and to the transformations now underway, will continue to be the most important strategic weapon.
